HYPER EXTENTION – GLUTE DOMINANT

Exercise Execution:

Setup in a hyperextension machine with your feet anchored and torso roughly perpendicular to your legs at a 45 degree angle.
Begin in a hinged position with your arms crossed and initiate the movement by flexing your glutes.
Extend the hips and finish with your body in a straight line.
To emphasise the glutes and reduce the use of the erector spinae keep your chin tucked and spine slightly flexed.
